    New Deck Rail Lighting Options
    AZEK Building Products introduces new outdoor lighting options to our AZEK® Rail product line. The new AZEK Rail Lighting products include two styles of Lighted Post Caps and Under Top Rail Lighting. And, for an even more dramatic effect, the AZEK Under Rail Lighting can be used in conjunction with the AZEK Lighted Post Caps.

    Universal Skirt Board In 10” Width
    Providing the perfect transition between the siding and trim, as well as assisting in water management, the Universal Skirt Board in 10-inch width profile allows more design flexibility and fits nicely into historic architectural styles that utilize wider trim. It is also an attractive alternative to a water table.

    New Architectural Moulding
    For ornate, classic or historic designs, these four new creative moulding profiles will provide a standout look for residential or commercial architecture.   AZEK Mouldings now includes 25 distinct moulding profiles that endure weather or assist in water management while adding classic beauty and easy workability.

    AZEK VAST Pavers
    By combining recycled materials with cutting-edge technology, AZEK VAST Pavers are up to one-half the weight of traditional pavers allowing AZEK VAST Pavers to be easily used in new applications such as flat roofs and residential decking.

  • During September of 2011 AZEK Building Products, a manufacturer of PVC-based molding, trim and decking, entered into a strategic alliance with VAST Enterprises, a maker of composite masonry products. Under the agreement, AZEK Building Products purchased an interest in VAST and will make the VAST brand available to AZEK’s distribution network which includes Boston Cedar. AZEK, VAST and Boston Cedar will collaborate on sales and marketing initiatives to drive brand awareness among architects, retailers, contractors and homeowners.

    In the ever changing and consistently growing segment of  outdoor living space options, the addition of products produced by Minneapolis, MN based VAST Enterprises is perhaps one of the more exciting products to come along in years.

    So what are VAST Composite Pavers?
    VAST is an innovative material made from up to 95% recycled materials such as scrap tires and plastic. VAST provides the strength, beauty and versatility of traditional concrete pavers while offering unique qualities only made available by a highly engineered composite material. VAST is the smartest, most socially responsible paver alternative in the industry. VAST Composite Pavers help projects earn LEED certification easier than any other pavement. VAST can outperform other pavements, such as pavers with fly ash, by more than ten-times.

    VAST Products Install Three-times Faster Than Traditional Concrete Pavers
    VAST’s patented grid system enables contractors to work more efficiently, saving time and reducing the amount of labor required for paver installation. Installers insert VAST pavers into the grid—in any designed pattern, and the pavers are automatically aligned for excellent results. Contractors routinely reduce paver installation time by over 65 percent with VAST.

    One-Third the Weight of Concrete
    VAST Composite Permeable Pavers weigh 8.2 pounds per square foot, versus 30 or more pounds per square foot for concrete permeable pavers. This weight advantage makes VAST pavers less energy-intensive and less costly to transport, easier to work with on job sites, and great for use in flat and green roof applications.

    Engineered to Last
    Manufactured with VAST’s patented composite masonry technology, VAST Composite Pavers fulfill the most demanding requirements for hardscape beauty, design versatility, durability, and installation efficiency. VAST’s composite material imparts deep colors, excellent slip resistance and unbeatable strength.

    Typical Uses
    VAST Pavers are an ideal solution for high use commercial applications such as parking lots, sidewalks, flat roof applications, entryways and public meeting areas. Some of the many residential uses include driveways, patios, walkways and deck resurfacing projects.
